STOCKTON - A motorcyclist fleeing police pursuing him for reckless driving Wednesday night ended up getting arrested after crashing through a wooden fence and trying to run away.

Police later determined that the motorcycle was reported stolen.

Officers attempted to stop the motorcycle around 8:25 p.m. near West Lane and Lorraine Avenue, but the rider led them on a one-minute pursuit down a dead-end street where he intentionally rode through the fence, police reported.

At that point, he abandoned the motorcycle but was caught as he attempted to run across a levee, according to a report.
